He tried to take the last shot, he lost his handle on the ball and passed it. You really think that play was drawn up for him to pass it to jackson?
When Kobe was in "Kobe mode" this season the Lakers were losing left in right. They didnt pick up steam until he started PASSING and improved his shot selection.
KD led the Thunder in Points, Assists and Rebounds, while spending half the night double teamed. There's 4 other players on the court at any given time that need to contribute. Kevin Martin and Reggie Jackson both missed at least 4 wide open 3's which came from KD being double teamed. Those are shots they should (and normally do) make. If they make those shots, Thunder win by 10, and nobody questions Durant's shot selection. But because they missed them everybody is all "KD has to put up more shots" "why is KD passing"
Y'all don't know nothing bout basketball man.

I imagine defenders want to beat his or the refs *** every time that's called (more than likely the latter)

Fam, that call was such bull.
Refs need to do a better job paying attention man, all these random replay reviews and unecessary foul-calling - I understand they want their 15 minutes of fame too, but they can't intefere with the game speed. Brooklyn vs Chicago's game was stopped at least 4 times in 5 minutes of gameplay because the refs couldn't make the right call.

Reggie is a 16.6% 3pt shooters outside of the corner. At one point, he took 3 straight. And yea, I hate the rip through too but let's not act like James Harden's entire game isn't based on just jumping into defenders and getting his arms tangled with their's. It's the same thing, just moving. It works so I mean it's smart because it works, but it's tough to watch and not "real" basketball IMO, but still doesn't bother me as much as charges do.
And if you really want to piss people off playing pickup ball, while technically being right at the same time, call a technical foul and for the ball back when they put their hand in your face while you are shooting. It's illegal but never enforced

Sometimes he does. The last play broke down though, they had to go to plan B. Jackson got off a decent shot. If Ibaka makes that easy put back the sweep is probably complete.

I agree with bolded but I also feel that him being a student of his craft is not a bad thing especially the quality over quantity tid bit. I commend him for that approach versus the bryant "chuck anything from anywhere" approach. I have watched kd since Texas and at that time I knew he would be a star and I'm almost certain he could take and make most of those dumb shots bryant takes if he wanted to.
Salute to dude for wanting to be an efficient player.
do work son

Everyone wants to say the thunder lost to the heat because James harden disappeared.
No one wants to acknowledge that they would have lost to the spurs if it weren't for James Harden showing out.

Lol man this is ridiculous!
Smh and a lot of yall still don't think this is wwe huh? Like I said...explain the main differences? This crap here is ruining the game. These refs have extensive training and are paid well and no way should this get past three refs as not being a bs no call.

I hate the new nba. ****** too buddy buddy. Even if u do study lebron keep that **** to yourself. Yeah bryant chucks or whatever but thats his game. He always been that player thats what makes u love/hate him. He didn't watch video in 2000 to learn how to crossover like ai or shoot like ray

I'm much more offended about the reffing than the players being best buddies. Simply because the NBA has the power to get better refs. And cut down on the foolishness. In the Internet age and with the AAU these guys are simply gonna be friends unless you have a **** the world mentality like Kobe and Garnett.
To be fair you can be best buddies and go at each others throats. Magic used to kiss isiah on the cheek before games lol.
The super team joining up is annoying but I think that's over with the new CBA.

Agree with first sentence.
Bryant Studied MJ voraciously (even stole a couple moves) while they both were playing and tried to be buddy buddy with him though, ijs!

Nah you really dont know basketball if you have a problem with kd attempting only 16 shots in which he made 12 of. He had 15 free throw attempts to go along with that too, you're just typing just to type fam

That irritated me to know end... the fact that they began calling carry on Iverson but Kobe could bring the ball over his shoulders and it be deemed perfectly legal
